Tite's technical assistant makes predictions for the clash with Peñarol: "we will improve"

Completing this Saturday (23), five years of one of the most historic achievements of the Libertadores, Flamengo won a documentary, from Disney+ streaming, about the title of the 2019 competition. Named “A Glória por Eles”, it premiered last Friday (22), at 8 pm, lasts one hour, and features exclusive interviews from names like Diego Ribas, Bruno Henrique, Rafinha, Diego Alves and Pablo Marí.

The material obviously recalls Flamengo's complete campaign in that Libertadores, and historic moments of a team that marked an era in South American football. Exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of the campaign is also shown. The series features the entire plot of that year, which begins with the departure of Abel Braga and the arrival of Jorge Jesus, until the historic turn against River Plate, in Lima, Peru.

Spoilers for the Flamengo documentary have already been released

In teasers for the documentary, some statements from players and moments that will be in the production have already appeared. One of the most viral was a speech by Rafinha, in which the former Flamengo full-back, now at São Paulo, says that the team led by Jorge Jesus entered the field already knowing they were going to win.

“Enter knowing that you will win, in Brazil? That's why Flamengo fans talk about 2019. Because we already knew (that we would win before the games), we applied everything we trained. And it didn’t go wrong, everything went right”, said Rafinha.

“In 2019 was for people (who had the best football in the country), there was no one for anyone. Flamengo was outstanding that year. It was very good, it was very tasty”, he added.

Last Friday (22), the Flamengo took another significant step towards the old dream of Nation: its own stadium. Around 400 members gathered at the Gávea Nobre Hall to check out the preliminary architectural and engineering study. The event was attended by president Rodolfo Landim, vice-president General, Rodrigo Dunshee, vice-president of Heritage, Marcos Bodin, and the club's CEO, Reinaldo Belotti.

The structure will have 60 meters in height, surpassing Maracanã, with 27 elevators and 16 main access ramps. The stadium will also feature 6,200 m² of LED panels, including an external screen.
